improvement of the position
of workers
(People's Commissariat of Foreign Trade,
People's Commissariat of Food,
People's Commissariat of Linen, State Clothing Committee, People's Commissariat of Health, etc.). Equally necessary are sub-commissions in the provinces of the main concentration of industrial workers. The Congress entrusts the elaboration of the regulations concerning these commissions to the Central Committee and to the responsible party workers of the corresponding departments immediately.

In view of the acute disaster caused by crop failure to the peasantry and intensified in very many cases by the demobilization of the army, the X Congress instructs the Central Committee to carry out through the Council of People's Commissars and the All-Russian Central Executive Committee measures similar to those set forth above for the improvement of the position of needy peasants, not limiting itself to the commission already created for this purpose by the All-Russian Central Executive Committee.
